5 inch wood flooring

4 years ago

I am building a new house and want to purchase unfinished hickory and maple flooring. I will have finished on site. I am wondering if I am going to have issues with 5 inch solid hardwood flooring or is it a safer bet to go with a four inch width. Thank you for any advice Mike

Going through similar decision making stages. I hear engineered flooring works better with 5 inch or wider floors with humidity variations.
